If they fail to provide such a necessary, obvious, and oft-requested feature, then I have no problem at all with softrooting it. As to your point about skill, I would say that most people who know about softrooting learned about it from boards like this one, and either have the skill, or they're on boards with people very willing to help them do it.

I wasn't trying to make a point about skill so much as I was making a point about voiding your out of the box warranty as well as any extended warranty you may or may not have purchased from square trade. Softrooting automaticaly voids either of those.
